Description


A bridge on the hiking trail at the Rough Ridge Overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway. This was as a storm was passing through, so it was foggy in the area.

WOW WOW and WOW this is my kind of shot and you done it to perfection. Mood, colors and so much more. Is this where the very small waterfall comes down a rock? #4273091

Shawn Jennings May 11, 2007

Thanks everyone!

Yes, Darren, this bridge is over a creek and it drops off to a small waterfall that runs over a large rock. The waterfall can be seen from the pullout on the parkway, so I think this is the same one you are referring to. #4273605
